So ... what started out as a few sketches as I sat in waiting rooms in Seattle ....
... plus (almost) an entire week of my life since we returned ... ended up as this!
Finished* with less than 2 hours to spare before I head off to the Teacher's Meeting. It's kind of interesting, don't you think, that I plan to teach others how to make this quilt in 4 or 5 hours? So let me ask you this serious question (as opposed to the non-serious ones that I usually ask, but still want answers to):
When you sign up to take a class ... would you rather commit to a longer class time to be assured of getting more completed ... or does a shorter time grab your attention more, knowing you'll complete it at home anyway?
I seriously want to know.
*This is just the finished quilt top, mind you. Another lifetime will be spent in quilting, binding and attaching the knock-out doorknob.

As a young mom, short class, since there's a better chance of me attending and finding babysitting. In a dream world, however, I'd like a longer class so I could finish it up there. I would be more focused and more likely to do it.
Sorry I don't have a witty comment. You did ask a serious question.
i'm going to totally contradict myself but i'll say it anyway :P
a shorter class will get my attention and make me want to attend but if i don't get everything done in the class, the likelihood of me actually finishing at home is not good. therefore, i'd actually prefer a longer class so i know i could finish it... if i'd actually commit to that long of a class :P
sorry, i know that probably didn't help you at all :P
That quilt is scrumptious! Makes me all warm and fuzzy thinking of the holidays, but now I'm starting to get sweaty since its still summer in AZ :)
I think I would prefer a long class because I would need all the help I could get.
Wow! I am sosoooooo impressed! I would like a longer class, to finish the project there. But I do not have to find a babysitter....
OK, I just have to say that I could NOT figure out why this pictures turned out so fuzzy ... and then I noticed my camera was still on the "portrait" setting.
Duh.
JUST THOUGHT TO LET YOU KNOW HOW TALENTED YOU ARE...
LOVE ALL YOUR PROJECTS...

Love the quilt. Already expressed my specific review to you personally. For my general impatience--shorter classes. For my tendancy to start but not finish projects--longer classes. For my adversion to most things fabric--a shorter class. If it's one on one and you're the teacher--a very, very long class--but I'm the only one who gets to say that.
longer class! It won't get finished if I take it home. It's worth the extra hours of a babysitter! And my sanity of getting a couple of hours to find joy in crafting!
